fished braidwood in the rain again. conditions were rough, but we pulled out a nice 6lb bass! had to use a heavy spinner because of wind, but they were definitely in the shallows. hope it clears up soon.

it was pouring at braidwood today. we braved the rain and caught some nice crappies. they were biting good before the heavy downpour. can’t believe we stuck it out, but it was worth it! best catch was about 2lbs.
